     Larger than life NBA superstar Matthew Dellavedova is going to be the subject of a full length feature film based on his incredible life.

    At this stage there has been no confirmation on who will take the lead role, although names like Brad Pitt, Chris Hemsworth and Matt Damon are being thrown around due to obvious physical resemblances.

    So who will be lining up to get their ticket to the Delly movie premiere?

    Could be a great way to get in your girls good books!

    And they also bare no resemblance to Delly, and Chris Hemsworth may be a little busy wielding Mjolnir for Disney/Marvel and he also doesn’t look anything like Delladova

    This idea sounds like a terrible movie pitch even by Hollywood standards

    And of course here you are at the epicenter of another Shyt Post

        I’d never pay to see a docu-style Life Time movie in the theater, I wouldn’t RedBox/Rent it digitally either, I would however eventually give it try because I watch anything and everything related to sports…If it happens to be good I’ll definitely give the film makers their due respect, I wouldn’t think the Delladova life story was the best Avenue to tell an entertaining story, but I’ve been proven wrong plenty of times in life

        Now, I’m a guy who spends too much time on the Internet and I would consider myself tuned in to what’s being made and what’s rumored to be made, the fact this flew under what I consider the radar as far as Indie/Documentary Films go, so the fact you found out this "Hollywood" scoop, it’s a testament to your morbid obsession with Aussie athletes…I’m surprised you didn’t suggest Jai Courteney to play Matthew Delladova, seeing as he’s really Australian and young enough aka In need of the work, to actually accept the role in a film of this caliber…

        I’ve wasted too much answering your simple minded question…I hope that will suffice

          Why couldn’t a story about an unconventional path to the NBA be a good story? We’ve all seen successful sports movies about similar themes (Hoosiers comes to mind for basketball, heck Rudy for American football seems like a pretty fair analogy too). Just because we’ve lived through it and watched it happen it doesn’t have as much impact. Doesn’t mean it’s not a good story. And I’d be personally interested to find out about Delly’s life growing up and how he got to St Mary’s college to start his NBA journey. I’d watch it. Only trouble is finding an actor with a weird enough head to play Delly. The ones mentioned (Courtney, Hemsworth) are way too photogenic to play Delly. Need someone uglier.

       He’s Australian and wasn’t eaten by a dingo as a baby.

        Worse than Dingoes, you’ve gotta watch out for dropbears. Like koalas but drop from the trees and eat your face. True story.

          The shark attacks are out of control.

           

          They love American tourists because their high salt diet is the perfect seasoning.

     This is obviously going to be a straight to DVD movie.

       Not so fast. With Delly  working as an Executive Producer, theres every chance it  could be nominated for the Best Film oscar award.

    Brad Pitt is 52 years old, if the Delly story was a sequel to Benjamin Button, then that’d be an amazing story, otherwise I’ll pass at this hypothetical movie.
